Configuration Options and Features[edit | edit source]
The ActiveCampaign for Salesforce Health Dashboard is structured around several key components that provide essential insights into the integration:
Sync Status Component[edit | edit source]
The Sync Status component offers a detailed view of all inbound and outbound syncs performed through the ActiveCampaign Salesforce integration. The key information displayed includes:
- Sync Date: The timestamp of when the sync was initiated.
- Sync Object: Indicates whether the sync involves a Contact or a Lead.
- Sync Type: Specifies if the sync was Outbound (from ActiveCampaign to Salesforce) or Inbound (from Salesforce to ActiveCampaign).
- Sync Status: Shows the outcome of each sync: Successful, Partial Success, or Failed.
- Successfully Synced: Count of contacts or leads that were synced without any errors.
- Failed to Sync: Total number of contacts or leads that encountered errors during the sync process.
- Skipped: Represents the number of contacts or leads that were not synched due to not meeting the established sync rules.
- Total Records: The cumulative number of contacts or leads that were attempted to sync.
API Usage Component[edit | edit source]
The API Usage component provides a visual representation of the API calls made by ActiveCampaign to your Salesforce organization. It displays:
- The top bar shows the number of API calls that ActiveCampaign has made within the designated 24-hour period and the remaining available calls.
- The bottom bar reflects the total number of API calls made to Salesforce over the entire account's lifetime, as well as the remaining API calls available.
This component is particularly beneficial for users managing multiple applications that interact with Salesforce APIs.
CXA Component Use[edit | edit source]
The CXA Component Use graph tracks how frequently Sales Representatives utilize ActiveCampaign CXA components within Salesforce over a 30-day period. This includes actions like Send one-time email and Enter into automation. Only successful events (such as completed email sends or automation entries) are represented in this graph, providing insights into the effectiveness of the integration.
Best Practices and Tips[edit | edit source]
To maximize the benefits of the ActiveCampaign for Salesforce Health Dashboard, consider the following best practices:
- **Regular Monitoring**: Make it a habit to frequently check the Health Dashboard to stay informed about sync statuses and API usage. This can help prevent issues related to API limits.
- **Utilize Sync Rules**: Ensure that sync rules are clearly defined during initial setup to minimize skipped records and improve the overall efficacy of sync processes.
- **Document Findings**: Keep a log of any sync errors or API limit issues encountered. This documentation can assist in troubleshooting and provide insights for future integrations.
Troubleshooting[edit | edit source]
In case users encounter difficulties while using the ActiveCampaign for Salesforce Health Dashboard, check the following:
- Ensure that at least one sync has been completed before accessing the Health Dashboard, as the data will not populate without initial synchronizations.
- If seeing an unusually high number of failed syncs, review the sync rules and conditions established during the setup to ensure they align with your data structure.
- For issues with the API usage component, verify if other applications use the Salesforce API to monitor overall usage effectively.
